(o.T.) pet fish and lit up aquariums

[Guest guest]

Judy,

    I agree with you.  When I was young, I baby-sat a lot for people and

remember some folks had aquariums at home.  I, too, thought they were mysterious

and beautiful--kind of " other-worldly " when the lights were off or dimmed, as I

sat up, reading, watching a little TV or whatever, before the parents of the

children came back late at night.  It was kind of comforting, I guess, as the

fish swam dreamily around in the tank and the aerator bubbled hypnotically.  I

like watching fish; it's so calming.

 

(I'm musing about odd things like fish in aquariums on this chilly evening here

in middle Illinois; it's a " hole up with a book by the fireplace " kind of

night!),

I love the aquarium at one of my sisters home.  It is in the living room, where

we sleep on her pull out sofa bed & cots.  It looks so pretty lit up in a dark

room.

I loved having a little, 2 1/2 gallon aquarium in my bedroom growing up.

Even with the light off -- I like the burbling water noise, it's comforting.

But aquariums are a lot of work to keep clean, even small ones. Maybe

someday again I'll have one!
